So, I used 7.0.0 beta and the RC and didn't see this issue. Now that the official 7.0.0 is out and I've upgraded, I see incorrect data being generated for my cache and array. Not just a little off, but way off. Why isn't the data syncing or refreshing correctly?

 

 

Do you have any snapshots? The GUI stats should always be the correct ones, especially for btrsf and zfs, where du can be very unreliable.

@JorgeB What do you mean? I attached the screenshots of the actual used vs what the GUI was reporting. I have a 3TB VM saved on the cache but it only reports 223GB of cache space used on the "main" section of the GUI.

That's the correct one, vdisks are sparse

@JorgeB I think I understand what you're saying. So the 3TB VM IMG file isn't consuming 3TB as shown in the file directory. It's only using the 150GB as shown in my photo attached and the 3TB is just what's available for the VM. Am I understanding correctly? And of course I have some files from the cache moving to the array as usual.

Correct.

One thing to remember is that although it is only currently using 150GB, it can grow towards the 3TB allocated as it is used, so you need to make sure that there is space for it to grow like this or at some point the VM will fail when it cannot get the extra space it needs.
